We successfully introduced a free beach wheelchair service at South Strand Skerries, and Velvet Strand Portmarnock, in 2016. These wheelchairs allow visitors with disabilities or mobility restrictions to have easier access to, and enjoyment of our beaches.

We have further rolled out the service for the 2017 Bathing Season, and at present there are 3 beaches with wheelchair availability:

South Strand Skerries

Velvet Strand Portmarnock

Balcarrick Beach Donabate

The service is free of charge, but must be booked in advance.

When are the Wheelchairs available?

Between the hours of 11am to 7pm, 7 days a week during July and August 2017.
